Good morning! |
I slept well last night, woke up early with a ton of energy and decided to check an Atlantic sunrise. |
Off to Nauset Light Beach we go. As Thoreau sorta said, a man with a camera phone can stand on a Cape Cod beach at sunrise and put all of America behind him. |
For a guy who dates a girl who my friends refer to as "a dime piece," I tend to have to sneak up on my models and shoot (with a camera) them surreptitiously . |
There is a storm offshore which aspires to become a tropical storm but doesn't quite have the moxie, but it is rolling some beautiful waves back at us. |
The bluffs look awesome in the right light. |
My initial thoughts were to head out and shoot me a shark, as they are most active around dawn and dusk, but I rolled up on Nauset at sunrise time, so we had a theme switch. |
The surf was too rough for sharking, although I did see a few seals. They were too fast for me to get the camera on them. |
I also saw a huge doe crossing the road just before I got to the beach. She was faster than my camera skills, and also won't be appearing in this article. |
I can catch the surf, however... |
I was leaving as the surfers were arriving, so no Hang Ten stuff... |
I get into my own articles now and then, but only with Funhouse camera angles... it's for the best, trust me, I look like the Frankenstein monster. |
The surf is a better model, anyhow. |
No houses were going to get torn down by this surf, but it teamed with the sunrise to be article worthy. |
There was a bit of a rip current and some surf was moving at odd angles. |
Looking north... |
...and looking south. |
When you only see one set of footsteps, that is when God carried you... unless you see these footprints, which just mean that you are following a seagull. |
The gull and I know the good spots. |
Dune Goldenrod, which sounds like a guy's porno name. |
Day was coming on full speed, and the beach was ready for the walkers. I grew up on lonely Duxbury Beach, am too used to having it to myself... |
... so I bid Eastham farewell. |
Nauset Light's lights are red and white, just like the lighthouse itself. |
